Knowledge is pain plus observation.


Also if you try to change keyblades in any room that has an NPC in it it'll crash the game.

Also Missing Link is currently in closed beta testing so it’s possible we might see it sometime next year. I’m guessing KH4 won’t be until 2025 or so at the earliest though seeing as we haven’t heard anything regarding the game since the initial trailer

I really hate Sanctuary, I find it super annoying. Face my Fears is good, Don’t Think Twice is also good.

Sanctuary is a better overall song than Simple and Clean, but Simple and Clean has that chorus which just blasts you with emotion. Don't Think Twice is great.

Face My Fears is good enough. When I heard it was Skrillex producing I assumed the worse, but when I heard the song I was like "that wasn't great, but drat it could have been a lot worse", which is my feeling about KH3 in general.

Sanctuary flows a little better in Japanese in my opinion (in the English version Utada has to elongate a lot of words to make it fit) but it's not a bad theme overall. I assume she'll be making another song for KH4 as well

I still think they should have commissioned Utada to write a new song for BBS at least (seeing as it was previewed in KH2’s secret ending and is for all intents and purposes Kingdom Hearts 0)

Same but the I replayed KH1 and got to the ending when they drop the song, and its honestly one of the best needle drops in a game ever. The song was just as powerful as it was a kid. Hell maybe even more so. I actually cried as a 32 year old man. I was heavily depressed though, my anti-depressants just stopped working and i was very isolated from all my friends because of forces outside my control, making it the perfect time to play Kingdom Hearts. It's hard to let it go.

I think the reason why they keep using Simple and Clean is entirely because of that drop in the ending.

Some new Missing Link info courtesy of someone off-site that's involved in the beta testing:

quote:

Basically you have the Town Mode which serves as the lobby where you get to interact with other players and follow the story. The GPS mode is called Astral World where you walk (physically or not) around a world laid like our own (it's the same streets but the buildings are to look like Scala Ad Caelum).

Once you approach or touch an enemy (if you are not using GPS) you immediately engage in battle. Battles are not turn based, they are in real time like the console games. If you are playing in portrait you can tap anywhere on the screen to attack if you are playing landscape there is a dedicated attack button. You can use the figures of Disney characters as magic but it consumes your MP which can only be refilled in special parts of the map, by waiting a bit or by, obviously, paying money.

Also as shown off in the trailer the cutscenes are voice acted this time around (it’s still inherently a gacha game though)

Melody of Memories is actually pretty fun, its essentially the same format as Final Fantasy Theaterhythm, I like how they included the movie versions of several disney songs.

The actual plot is only in the last 5% of the game and the rest is just Kairi narrating an abridged version of the events of the series minus UX (including the parts she wasn’t around for somehow) but yeah, I’m not usually a fan of rhythm games but MoM is pretty fun once you get the hang of it

Hell of a journey
Can't wait for 4, and its 10 spinoff games

The games are also currently on sale on Epic, and you can easily snap up a 33% off coupon to reduce the prices even further - you can get 7 games and 3 movies for under $50 (sans Melody of Memory, which bumps it up to 61.61)
